Salon Samba
★2.6(11 reviews)LBV · Terminal 1 · airside
Libreville's only lounge — DragonPass, walk-in or alliance status, just past passport control.
Salon Samba is Libreville International Airport's single lounge, set airside in Terminal 1 immediately past passport control and the security check — turn right after the checkpoint and it's at the start of the corridor. It's a genuinely flexible option for a small airport: DragonPass members are welcome, a walk-in day pass is sold so you can pay per visit without any status, and eligible SkyTeam and Star Alliance passengers can use it too. Inside, the lounge is air conditioned and calm, with comfortable seating arranged in clusters, large windows looking onto the tarmac, snacks, hot and cold drinks and a bar. There's Wi-Fi, a television and flight monitors so you can keep an eye on your departure. A stay is capped at three hours, which suits a typical departure from LBV.
Crowding · generally quiet
Workable for a short stop, with Wi-Fi and comfortable seating you can use for a laptop, though it's a compact lounge rather than a dedicated business space and stays are capped at three hours.
A light spread suited to a short pre-flight stop — snacks with hot and cold beverages, plus a bar serving both alcoholic and soft drinks. It's a refreshment-style offering rather than a full buffet, which fits the lounge's compact size and the three-hour stay.
